This is what I just talked with PM about :-)

A question if you please; I just had to reinstall FS 9.1 after a corrupted file, can I just replace saved FSUIPC and WideFS from a previous copy into their proper locations?

Yes, and your FSUIPC INI and KEY files.

You only need to re-register if you re-installed Windows for some reason.

Thanks Pete, everything seems to be working as it should as I slowly begin to rebuild my set-up. I did learn something from this event; just copying the folders does not appear to be the proper way to backup one's system. I have now purchased an additional HD (Acronis came with this Seagate drive) and Norton Ghost (which was ordered before I found out that Acronis is better that Ghost) to be able to properly backup my FS system.
Perhaps somebody with better knowledge may want to jump in here (or somewhere else) to enlighten us as to the best method.

Many thanks,

Bill T.
